Point Guard – Our featured site for the
point guard position is DraftKings

Top Play:

Stephen Curry (GS) – At $9,700, Curry’s price
point has never been cheaper on DraftKings. I’m awfully tempted to
simply lock him in at that price as he’s the clear top point guard
in action. I have some concerns (blowout risk at home, matchup is
subpar to average) but consider the price point on DraftKings. His
value threshold there is around 48-49 points and Curry is averaging
48 DraftKings points on the season. Any time we can grab a player
at a salary point where he simply needs to have an average game to
pay off the tag represents an investable situation.

Next in line: John Wall (WAS) (strong home
matchup against Cleveland makes him a tournament play on DraftKings
but cash game playable on a site like FanDuel where he’s more
favorably priced and offers a larger discount to Curry)

Value Plays:

Reggie Jackson (OKC) – I’m sure you’re getting
sick of seeing Jackson in the Rundown, but he’s such a stable force
at the point guard position and is still priced closer to the
mid-tier point guards than the top tier ones. We probably won’t see
40-plus minutes out of Jackson anymore but around 37 minutes is
still a ton of playing time and the usage rate is great (26.1). The
pace and total in this game are admittedly not great, but it’s an
expected tight contest (one point spread) against a Brooklyn team
ranking 26th in defensive efficiency against opposing
point guards.
